This following is from our new Flotilla Vice Commander Mike Casey:
I’m honored to introduce myself as the new Vice Flotilla Commander for Coast Guard Auxiliary Flotilla 081 01 02, Apalachee Bay, Florida. I’m from Tallahassee originally, and some of my ancestors lived along the St. Marks River in the early 1800s.
My vision for the future of our flotilla is to work with our Flotilla Commander to increase our presence by expanding our recreational boating safety and public affairs programs. I am very pleased to work with our new Flotilla Commander, and dedicated flotilla officers and members to promote all auxiliary policy and programs within our flotilla, and to foster growth in membership in the Coast Guard Regulars, Reserves, and Auxiliary. We are also looking for good candidates (ages 17 to 22) for the Coast Guard Academy.
As Vice Flotilla Commander, I’m committed to work with our Flotilla Commander to ensure that our flotilla, in support of the United States Coast Guard, continues to provide the highest level of service to our country and to our communities.
Very Respectfully,
Mike
